On May 31, 1975, at Wembley Stadium, Evel Knievel successfully jumped over 13 double tier buses but crashed his motorcycle upon landing, breaking his pelvis. Assisted by handlers, he staggered to the microphone and announced that he would never jump again. Yet, less than 5 months later, Knievel successully jumped 14 Greyhound buses at King's Island, Ohio. His last big stunt came a year later when he jumped a shark tank at the Chicago Amphitheater. Knievel crashed, broke both arms and suffered a concussion.
